Pros

Great pay and benefits. The job can be rewarding at times to know just how much you manage at such a young age. The experience is great and you will earn a lot to take to another job. You will find out in a few years time if you're made for the Aldi way, if not do yourself a favor and move on to a more balanced business model.

Cons

Work life balance does not exist as a District Manager. Between traveling around to stores, corporate meetings and being on call 24/7 the stress can start to add up. Depending on the strength of other DM's in your area and also the community of potential employees to pull associates- hiring for stores can be the most time consuming and worst part of the job.

Pros

Always something new- a lot of responsibility and autonomy. Skip the entry-level job and have a challenging and rewarding career right out of college. Fast growing company and opportunities for anyone with the drive to take advantage.

Cons

Long hours sometimes. It can take a toll on someone who lets work overcome them and can't strike a balance. Sometimes you have to pull yourself away because nobody else is going to.

Pros

Short chain of command, decisions are well thought out before they are implemented. No wasting time with bad new procedures

Cons

Incredible amount of work for each individual in the store. Not alot of praise.
